Best Fitness chose the American Diabetes Association® because of the large number of individuals affected and because of their dedication to good health. The American Diabetes Organization® promotes nutritious eating and fitness because the risk for certain types of diabetes can be reduced through physical activity and maintaining a healthy weight. Best Fitness Vice President of Personal Training Karli Taylor said, “ We feel strongly about supporting this organization. They work hard to educate people about the importance of adopting a healthy lifestyle. They also provide many resources to the community. We are proud to donate 100 percent of all event proceeds to fighting diabetes.”

The mission of the American Diabetes Association® is to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by the disease.

P90X®, which stands for Power 90 Extreme,began as an at home exercise regimen known for its intensity. Instructors need to be P90X® certified to teach at facilities such as Best Fitness.

P90X® has become a household name and we expect a large turnout in a gym setting. Having instructors and friends help motivate you makes it enjoyable and addicting.”
